Famous all-rounder vellie or veldskoen. Known as a DKW ("Dans Kerk Werk" - Afrikaans for Dance Church Work and perfect for the Braai!)
Handmade in Cape Town using traditional methods in genuine Suede leather with a padded foot bed.
An unpretentious, stylish, multi-purpose, superbly comfortable desert boot built on a durable, non-marking crepe sole.
Vellies were originally made in the 17th century in South Africa. The design is believed to be based on the traditional Khoisan footwear. Lightweight and extremely tough, the vellie can withstand the harsh African conditions and terrain. The vellie has become the sole of Afrika and is part of South African, Zimbabwean, Namibian and Kenyan society and culture, worn by all classes and professions, for all occasions.
Colour variation is inherent to any leather product.
Scars, veins, tick marks and neck grooves are evidence of natural leather.
